“Miss Yinxiang is right. After what happened, Miss Yinxiang’s future is almost completely ruined. Even if Miss Yinxiang is careless, she would not be so reckless. This must be a deliberate frame-up!”
"Young Master Wenhao and Miss Yinxiang arrived in Guyue City one after the other, and both of them encountered trouble there. Miss Shuiyue is the ultimate beneficiary. Shuiyue must give us an explanation for this!"
“Yes, if it was the Zhou family patriarch of Danling who made the move, even ten Miss Shuiyue wouldn’t be able to withstand it. How could they leave any survivors to testify against them! Miss Shuiyue’s claim that Miss Yinxiang and the Sixth Elder colluded with the Zhou family patriarch of Danling is clearly slander!”
The clamor of doubt rose and fell, overwhelming Dongdan Shuiyue.
Their arguments were logical and well-founded, and Dongdan Shuiyue was finding it difficult to defend herself. She secretly used her divine sense to ask Ji Fengyao for instructions: "Miss Huofeng, what should we do now? If I insist, I'm afraid I will drag you into this."
"From the very beginning, didn't you intend to drag me out to oppose Dongdan Yinxiang? Why are you hesitating now?" Ji Fengyao teased Dongdan Shuiyue.
Dong Dan Shuiyue was so frightened that her legs went weak and she almost couldn't stand up. She quickly said, "That was because I was blind before. Now I would never dare to implicate you in the slightest. I hope you will forgive me and ask for your guidance."
"Shuiyue, what's wrong? Could it be that what they said..." The Second Elder quickly helped Dongdan Shuiyue up and asked in a low voice.
In fact, he had already guessed this.
It's all a matter of the victor taking all the credit, so what if Dongdan Shuiyue did all of this?
As long as no one finds any concrete evidence against her, no one can touch her.
But once they confirm her guilt, Dongdan Shuiyue will be finished!
"I am a fourth-level alchemist," Ji Fengyao secretly told Dong Dan Shuiyue.
Dong Dan Shuiyue's eyes widened in surprise as she turned to stare at Ji Fengyao in astonishment.
Holy crap... a fourth-tier alchemist?!
You, a fourth-tier alchemist, have gone and become a bandit!
Wouldn't it be better to just find a powerful family to be your ancestor and be worshipped?
"Why are you looking at me like that? Go and start arguing!" Ji Fengyao raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, her expression innocent and cute. "If you can't even win this argument, you're not qualified to be my servant. You really have nothing else to do but die."
The Second Elder and the others followed Dongdan Shuiyue's gaze to Ji Fengyao, who, after being disguised, had an ordinary appearance:
What happened to that female cultivator?
Why did Dongdan Shuiyue specifically turn around to look at her at this moment?
Dong Dan Shuiyue finally recovered from her shock, composed herself, pointed at Ji Fengyao behind her, and said in a sorrowful voice: "My golden core is shattered and my dantian is damaged. The reason I didn't die is because I was lucky enough to encounter the Fire Phoenix."
It was Huo Feng who rescued me from Dongdan Yinxiang and the He family overnight and treated me, which is why I am still alive today. Otherwise, I would have perished here with Brother Wenhao long ago!
Did I scheme against her, Dongdan Yinxiang?
Why don't you say that it was Dongdan Yinxiang who knew I was rescued and was worried that I would testify against her?
So she resorted to a self-inflicted injury ruse, trying to divert everyone's attention so she could then slander me!
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this, and once again turned their suspicious and astonished gazes toward Ji Fengyao.
"This Fire Phoenix is..." The Second Elder's eyes also gleamed as he looked at Ji Fengyao as if she were a priceless treasure.
"That's right, Huo Feng is a fourth-level alchemist. She's a friend I met by chance when I was training in the Monster Forest." When Dong Dan Shui Yue said this, she inexplicably didn't feel aggrieved.
